    Can anyone post some pics of their OEM LED headlights? Looking to do a conversion pretty soon but while shopping around I've seen a bunch of different descriptions about the housing. Some of them say black, chrome, gray, etc. Just want a little clarity to see what would work with my truck.

    Thanks

    It really depends the look you are going for. If you are trying to get rid of any chrome like I did, then black is the way to go. If you don't mind the chrome then go for that. It's just the housing that is the different color. I have the TRD Pro headlights with the black housing and love them. It's just a subtle black in the background of the lens. I'll post a pic later today.

    2018 CM Sport. I believe these are Smoke. IIRC, the Pro comes in Black. Someone feel free to correct me on this.

    Every time I become ok with the chrome surround and bulge on my MGM, I see a pic like this and immediately need to color match. looks so stinking killer!

    Non-intentional thread-jack. sorry, OP. Back to the headlight show!

    The LED housings came in three variants. Chrome, Smoked chrome and Gloss black. I went through this exact situation and decided to go black because I'm de chroming the 1794 I have. I have all three housings colors and a white truck. Black looked the best to me overall.

    If you can swing the tariff.. headlight revolution has morimoro lights ( they make the trd pro lights for Toyota ). That’s what I put in. I tried to buy used Toyota sequoia ones but the housing was too big for the core support and would not fit.
